It's been around 12 days since the formation of our community, and I believe it's a good time to do an event:

London Sidebar Contest

From now until July 8th, you are invited to write a short introduction for visitors to the London community. Create a welcoming message, share a witty statement, a quote, or anything that represents our community. Just make sure it complies with our rules and is kept concise (less than around 280 characters/3 sentences).

The top post with the most captivating introduction will be selected, and the user behind it will receive a special gift: a £15 Great British Pub E-Card (To claim your prize, the selected user will need to provide their email address via a private message).

Community Suggestions

We want this community to thrive and be a place for everyone. That's why we value your input! If you have any suggestions on how we can enhance the community experience, we'd love to hear them. Perhaps you'd like to see weekly themed threads, or maybe you have other creative ideas. Remember, this is a learning experience for me too, so all suggestions are welcomed and will be carefully considered.

Let's continue together to create an amazing space for all London enthusiasts.

Not doing this for the money - as a long time lurker on Reddit, I've since jumped ship to Lenny and I'm looking forward to seeing this community grow. London is already melting pot of different people, traditions and cultures - I hope this community reflects that!

That melting pot of different experiences is what I'm hoping to create with this community, so far I think it's coming along nicely.
